When did your toughest weight loss plateau occur?

  1. 1. When did your toughest weight loss plateau occur?

    • Within the first two months after surgery - pretty discouraging to go through the surgery and not be losing weight!
      1
    • Two to six months after surgery - sticking to the diet, but haven't yet hit your stride
      3
    • Six to 12 months after surgery - I was doing fine at first, but
      4
    • More than one year after surgery - those last several pounds are the toughest!
      1
    • Having trouble maintaining - every day is a struggle.

I have had a few plateaus so far, but I have been hovering around at 90 pounds lost for the last few weeks. I am just over the 6th month mark now. I had my check up at the doctor's office and I decided I wanted to up the intensity of my exercises, add strength training and start planning low carb meals. I realize that to get to where I want which is still 110 pounds away, I'm going to have to work even harder now and really be disciplined to be successful long term. I will be successful! :lol:

I am a little over 5 months out and have not really had a tough plateau yet. The longest was 4 days. They all stink though. Praying to not have one that lasts weeks until I.am at my goal

Thank you Rongee2099! This plateau is frustrating, but I know it's part of the process and it will not last forever! :) I will not give up!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
